No Screw License Plate? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

SuperStock · 09-03-2015, 11:12 PM

Unfortunately I live in Texas and I am required to have a front plate...I already have the factory drilled holder removed and the holes plugged up. Anyone have a recommendation for a no-drill license plate holder?

Good question.

I used interior automotive plugs in place of the screws. still going into holes but they look much cleaner.

Try JacFab , a company that makes a flip down front plate frame that connects to the pre-existing 10mm bolts under the front bumper.

Check the member's classifieds here under exterior parts. Someone is selling a no drill Jacfab mount for 55.00 shipped.

I wish I would have seen that before ordering one new

I put a plate on to cover holes from the dealer mount that I removed. Just drilled holes in the plate to match the ones already in the car and used body plugs instead of bolts to hold the plate on. Looks a little cleaner I think.

My personal favorite in terms of mounting devices is our removable license frame brackets. We even have a video for you to look at so you can see how non invasive it is!

This is the version for your SS

Here is the RS version

Thanks for all the tips guys! Going to de rail this thread now to oil choice. My dealer "changed the oil when they got my car in trade. My car says 40% oil life, so I don't know if they forgot to reset the tracker or what. I'm leaning towards Royal Purple because that's what I run in my street/strip 3rd Gen. I'm open to other suggestions.
